I'm a little confused by this patch, and also worried that it may be
reverting commit 75514ab57a.
It is basically looking for whatever provides the *gettext and
bindtextdomain functions, not caring about embedded libintl copies. If
they are in libc (like implemented in GNU libc), then the LIBINTL &
LTLIBINTL variables are empty, otherwise they will contain the library
(usually an external libintl.so).
Does this require gettextize?
Definitely not; this commit does not change the way messages are
extracted.
